The Price is Right, one of the country’s most popular game shows, raised nearly $100,000 for Planned Parenthood this week.
Contestants won big during the special, totaling $97,266 in prizes, Fox News reported.
RuPaul, an actor and drag queen of RuPaul’s Drag Race fame, joined host Drew Carey as the show raised money for “the charity Planned Parenthood.”
Several Twitter users expressed outrage that the show would support Planned Parenthood, while others were more supportive.
BREAKING:
Monday’s primetime special of @PriceIsRight will feature a drag queen playing to win money for Planned Parenthood.
Planned Parenthood slaughters 947 Americans every day and has over $2 BILLION in assets.
Despicable.
